2022 Map of Mountain Pass

About this map

Mulberry Canyon dominates the northern landscape of this Taylor County terrain, where the undulating peaks of the Callahan Divide transition into deep drainage basins. The area is defined by a series of prominent topographical landmarks including Castle Peak, Riney Peak, and Bald Mtn, which overlook the complex network of draws and hollows such as Mapes Hollow and Horse Hollow. Water resources are central to the local geography, featuring the Billy Doan Reservoir and Hugh Lilly Lake, along with the seasonal flows of Mulberry Cr and Elm Cr. Genealogy researchers will find the Dudley Cem situated in the southeastern portion of the quadrangle near the junction of Co RD 618 and FM 89. The map also traces the historic alignment of the Butterfield Trail Rd, providing a tangible link to 19th-century western migration and transportation routes that once traversed this rugged portion of the Texas frontier.
